Many people leave comments praising the actors and actresses that made up the Carol Burnett Show. That's fine, I agree but I also would love to thank the writers of the show. Carol had some of the best.

RIP Tim. I'm sure you have all the angels laughing 😅

I really wish they made shows like this nowadays. Everything about the Carol Burnett Show is purely entertaining, comedy at its best.

I bought an Electrolux vacuum from a door to door salesman back in 1974. It still works great! It looks just like this one!

I have an old Electrolux too, have had it for 30 years and I bought it reconditioned. The darned thing still works like a brand new model. I don't know how old it is but is a similar appearance to the one used in the skit.

Carol Burnett and Tim Conway brought us happiness just by being so funny. This was pure comedy without the trash and vulgarity that are in TV today. It doesn't get any better than these two. Love them both.

I'm only a 23 year old but I honestly vouch with people in the comments about certain appliances from back then lasted years. Being from parents growing up during the 60s and 70s, I always hate how the things they have that are older then me last way longer then things made now a days. We had our fridge for 25-30 years that worked like a dream, and then they got a new one last year that broke within the first month. This century is taking a downturn that only Carol Burnett can fix with laughter 🙏🏻

When I was a newlywed in 1967 a salesman came by the apartment and demonstrated a Riccar sewing machine which I bought for three monthly payments of $30.00. That thing has worked perfectly for nearly fifty years, probably because I followed his directions to oil it frequently. I often think of him and especially while watching this video.

I once let a double glazing salesman pitch for five hours. They cold called me, I told his manager that I wouldn't be signing until I had got three quotes. Also told the patronising salesman the same thing as soon as he arrived. I opened a box of chocolates for 'lunch'. As he was leaving with me not buying he suggested I made out a personal cheque to him for the deposit, and if I changed my mind he would destroy the cheque. I got my cheque book out, his face lit up. I put the pen on the cheque book, he was happy. Then I told him that I wanted to get three more quotes. He left slamming the door.

I really want to know how much of his skits Tim improv'd on the spot and caught others off-guard and cracked 'em up

Tim Conway was a favorite of my grandmother every week on Carol show. He was unique

That's an Electrolux. My Dad was a salesman. 50 years ago.

Tim Conway was a comic Genius!!!!

Oh my! That brings back memories of a vacuum salesman trying to sell to my parents. That man stayed in our house till very late at night. He just would not take the hint. Dad finally had to get forceful and had to push him out. That was over 50 years ago.

These old shows made a kid so happy way back then... especially Eunice!

Tim Conway was awesome on this show - always had me in stitches. On McHale's Navy too. Father Time is catching up with him now - God bless and thank you so much for the laughs, Mr. Conway.

Reminds me of when my mother and Aunt both wanted a very specific Electrolux Vacuum cleaner. Expensive but worth the investment. They arranged for a sales rep to come over and my Aunt was also there. The guy went through the ENTIRE presentation. Mom kept interrupting him to say, "You don't have to do this. We each want to buy one." But he went on for almost 45 minutes. It was weird. But in the "olden days" people had work ethics, so maybe he felt he had to do something to earn his money. 🤔 Not like these days. 🤑 LL 🙋🏻‍♀️✝🇨🇦

Just the intro-music to this sketch takes me back. It sounds so peaceful and inviting. I remember watching the CBS at my Grandma's on Saturday nights.....

This skit was hilarious. I loved it.

I remember about 30 years ago when the Kirby vacuum came out and this guy came over and demonstrated it and he says I'm sure you people are very clean and he turned the vacuum on and I couldn't believe the dirt that came up that was a great vacuum and when my mother saw that she couldn't believe her eyes and we bought it right there

I remember a microwave oven salesman coming to our house for a demonstration and it was as big as a tv and he amazed us by heating up water!

How am I angry and laughing my head off at the same time?

Back in the day when I remember salesmen going door to door selling vacuums, encyclopedias, bibles, and other household items. I always looked forward to the new encyclopedias.

My sister sold Kirby vacuums in the early 2000s. Gotta share this with her!

If only this stuff would last as long as it use to..... better days gone by

Tim Conway walks into a room and says nothing. .......room erupts into raucous laughter.

When I was a kid a Rainbow vacuum salesman came to our house. My mom let the guy do his demonstration where he dumped salt on the living room carpet and vacuumed it up. Well, it didn't work too great. For several years thereafter, Mom was complaining about the salt that wouldn't come out of the carpet. 😂

that looks like the old Electrolux vacuums we had

When I was a kid, we had this vac, in the 60's and 70's.

We had a vacuum cleaner salesman years ago demonstrate for us .He freaked right out when we didn’t buy one. He slammed everything away and fussed and fumed. We stood there not knowing what to do. My husband said something like” Gee,you won’t sell anything with that attitude”. The poor guy slammed out the door.

Is this going to take long 😂 I sure will miss you Mr Conway.

Always loved this show!! Lots of laughs!

I almost sold vacuum cleaners. But during the training the trainer showed us some tricks to selling and I left half way through the training as I wouldn’t trick people into buying a vacuum for $2500.

its an Electrolux and yes they did work very nicely, you can tell how quiet it was that is how they sounded so she actually turned it on. a machine of that quality today would cost probably several hundred dollars. I have one from that era that still works well. I think they are now called Aerus.

That vacuum cleaner looks like an old Electro-Lux.

In the early 1960s my father sold vacuums on the weekends. One day I stayed home from school and was locked in my room but with my dads vacuum sample. I took it apart so much he had to buy it. I grew up to be an industrial mechanic

Tim was so funny.

That looks like the model that was my grandmother's from probably the 1940's which I still have that works. Mine that I bought in 1978 is still working well. Mine has wheels and hers have runners. I use hers to vacuum our cars. I bought an upright once because people told me that it was lighter and easier and the belt broke after a few months and had continual problems so I got rid of it. Nothing you buy today will be running in 40+ years.

I wish he was still around! Such a good actor.

Tim Conway never rehearsed so you never new what he was going to do .he had every body busting up laughing

I remember my father putting the Rainbow Vacuum Salesman through two hours of hell making him demo every feature: sucking water out of the toilet - then blowing the water back out; vacuuming out our dirty fireplace... Then making him vacuum our entire house. Meanwhile, my father is poring highballs insisting that the salesman drink with him. Eventually, my father broke out the checkbook since the poor guy definitely worked for it. In 1974, $1200 for a vacuum was a lot of money, but my dad said it was a fair deal since the guy drove at least 15-20 miles from the nearest town out to our ranch, and the fact he was such a good sport.
